We have a winner!
- bb88 2y agoReverse lottery.
- compootr 2y agoonly reverse for the airline :)
- CoastalCoder 2y ago> We have a winner! We won't know that until they de-plane.
- fransje26 2y agoOh, de-planing they will. The question is more: at what speed?
- orbisvicis 2y agoJust bring a parachute. Then, deregulate the industry and make safety a personal responsibility.
- fransje26 2y agoPikachu face when you find out, in free-fall, that the parachute manufacturers took the same approach to safety..
- orbisvicis 2y agoHeh. There are defects that are impossible to catch. But if what I've read about parachutes is accurate, you're supposed to inspect them before use as they have a shelf life. And that's the problem with deregulation. It's inefficient because it places a greater burden on everyone and therefore a greater burden on society. Nobody has time for that. Except rich people - they can hire personal parachute checkers.

And it dilutes responsibility by hiding defects behind plausible deniability. Like what happened after the Lion Air crash, when Boeing tired to put the blame on poor piloting skills, bad training and a sub-par, 3rd world company.
